Okay, as a last ditch effort, I'm coming here for assistance. Recently, I purchased the "Custom Order Maid 3D2.5 + X0 with Kiss Character Edit System" from Nutaku.net. and for whatever reason, there is an error message I keep getting when trying to install. The full error message is as follows:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't have ANY fucking idea what any of that means. Can somebody help me please for the love of god?!
Every installer comes with a update.lst file that tells the installer the byte size, checksum(?) and version of every file that is to be installed. The installer then compares that information with the actual files in the pack. If the checksum doesn't match it's because the file is different from what is expected. It could be because of file corruption or the installer doesn't have permissions to read the file properly.
1. You could try downloading the installer again. Your initial download could be corrupted.
Make sure it does't throw any errors when extracting the archive.
2. Now look at that path. Can you read it? Probably the installer can't read it either because it's longer that 260 characters which is the max path size for 32bit apps. Shorten the path as much as you can. C:\Users\Jared\Hmmm\COM3D2\installler\whatever components it has\.. should do it.
3. You are installing in C:\.. You might need to run the installer as administrator in that directory.
4. The whole COM installer folder could be read only for whatever reason. Right click on C:\Users\Jared\Hmmm\COM3D2\ folder > properties > uncheck read only > apply to files and subfolders.
